Vibration tests on interconnected timber elements using wood-wood connections

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Jean-François Bocquet

Vibration tests were performed on 3 large-scale timber slabs using wood-wood connections with a span of 8.1 meters. 10 impulsive vibration tests per specimen were performed to estimate the initial natural frequency. Vibrations were triggered using a hammer ...

Phase Noise Measurements Of Aluminum Scandium Nitride Oscillators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Marco Liffredo, Andrea Lozzi

This paper presents the first phase noise (PN) measurements of oscillators based on aluminum scandium nitride (AlScN) resonators. 2-port AlScN contour mode resonators (CMR) operating at 195 MHz arc fabricated. A large pool of Q values (ranging from 150 to ...

Optical backaction-evading measurement of a mechanical oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

Quantum mechanics imposes a limit on the precision of a continuous position measurement of a harmonic oscillator, due to backaction arising from quantum fluctuations in the measurement field. This standard quantum limit can be surpassed by monitoring only ...

Variation of Ice Nucleating Particles in the European Arctic Over the Last Centuries

Julia Schmale, Arne Christian Vogel

The historical development of ice nucleating particle concentrations (NINP) is still unknown. Here, we present for the first time NINP from the past 500 years at two Arctic sites derived from ice core samples. The samples originate from the EUROCORE ice co ...

Modeling and Analysis of a Direct Time-of-Flight Sensor Architecture for LiDAR Applications

Edoardo Charbon, Chunmin Zhang, Preethi Padmanabhan

Direct time-of-flight (DTOF) is a prominent depth sensing method in light detection and ranging (LiDAR) applications. Single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays integrated in DTOF sensors have demonstrated excellent ranging and 3D imaging capabilities, ma ...

Domain Adaptation and Investigation of Robustness of DNN-based Embeddings for Text-Independent Speaker Verification Using Dilated Residual Networks

Sébastien Marcel

Robustness of extracted embeddings in cross-database scenarios is one of the main challenges in text-independent speaker verification (SV) systems. In this paper, we investigate this robustness via performing structural cross-database experiments with or w ...

Out-of-equilibrium dynamical equations of infinite-dimensional particle systems. II. The anisotropic case under shear strain

Elisabeth Agoritsas

As an extension of the isotropic setting presented in the companion paper Agoritsas et al (2019 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 52 144002), we consider the Langevin dynamics of a many-body system of pairwise interacting particles in d dimensions, submitted to an ...

Spatial clusters of daytime sleepiness and association with nighttime noise levels in a Swiss general population (GeoHypnoLaus)

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Rebecca Himsl

INTRODUCTION: Daytime sleepiness is highly prevalent in the general adult population and has been linked to an increased risk of workplace and vehicle accidents, lower professional performance and poorer health. Despite the established relationship between ...

Comparison of Feedback Linearization and Model Predictive Techniques for Variable Speed Limit Control

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Isik Ilber Sirmatel, Yihang Zhang

Different types of variable speed limit (VSL) controllers have been proposed to improve the traffic mobility at highway bottlenecks. However, the benefit of VSL is sometimes deteriorated by the capacity drop phenomenon introduced by the disordered lane cha ...
